The Floating Ampersand: STS Past and STS to Come
Engaging Science, Technology, and Society, 2016 STS has become a discipline in the sense that it offers new ways to read and make sense of the world. It remains an amalgam, however, of two linked yet separate lines of inquiry, both abbreviated as STS.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.In this study, we fabricate photovoltaic retinal implants with pyrolytic carbon electrodes and test their ability to stimulate mouse and pig retinas when illuminated with near‐infrared light. We find increased spiking activity in both animal models compared to spontaneous activity and TTX controls and analyze the spike amplitude, latency and frequency.

Exploring the tension and synergies between science and technology in science education [PDF]
, 2009 This chapter explores the way in which technology has been introduced through and by science educators in Australasia in the last 25 years. A number of themes have arisen in this time from using technology to engage students in science, exploring the ...

Tailoring Symmetry Breaking in Engineered van der Waals Superlattices
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.We pioneer a scheme to tailor superpotentials in graphene based on intrinsic substrate electronic orders rather than twist angle. The resulting superpotential folds graphene's Dirac cones to either Γ$\Gamma$ or K‐points, leading to distinct symmetry behaviors.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Rapid thiol‐maleimide addition frequently outpaces mixing, resulting in heterogeneous hydrogels. S‐nitrosothiols act as thiol‐protecting groups, allowing uniform mixing with maleimide‐functionalized polymers before gelation. Sodium thiosulfate or sodium ascorbate then regenerates thiols on demand, triggering controlled thiol‐maleimide crosslinking ...

La météorologie appliquée à la lutte contre les incendies de forêt
Revue d'anthropologie des connaissances, 2014 The article examines how meteorological forecasts reconfigure the organization of risk management with the particular case of wild forest fire fighting. To what extent are forecasts “useful” and “adapted” to foresters’ operational work?
